Chapter 6
"Does anyone have anything to eat?"Flowers said,ignoring Ginny's comment,"I'm absolutely starving!"
The door to the compartment opened.
"Would anyone like anything off the cart,my dears?"asked the witch.
"Some cauldron cakes and pumpkin juice,please,"said Harry,"And do you have anything that might please a cat?"
"Yes.I happen to have some tuna and milk,"said the witch.
"I'll take some of that,too,please,"Harry said.
Harry paid the witch for their delicacies(A/N I don't think I spelled that right.Sorry!)
He then passed around cauldron cakes and pumpkin juice.Harry set the saucer of milk down.Then he set the tuna down.
Flowers looked up at him and smiled before wolfing(or should I say lioning?doesn't sound right.)
down the tuna.
They all sat around and ate their snacks.Everyone was quiet for a while.
Finally,Ron broke the silence.
"Thanks,Harry.You didn't have to do that."
"It's no problem."
"Hey,shouldn't we change into our robes?"asked Hermione.
"Yeah.We'll be there in about,"Harry consulted his new watch,"half an hour."
"Okay.Us girls will change in here first,while you guys wait out in the hall.Then,we'll switch and grls will wait in the
hall until you give us the okay,"Jane said.
"Fine,"both Harry and Ron agreed.
So they ushered the boys out and hurriedly changed into their robes.Harry and Ron knocked and they switched places.The boys
also changed quickly.Harry walked over and knocked three times on the door.Ginny,Jane,Jean and Hermione walked back in.
They all took the seats they had earlier,except for Jane.She walked over,pushed Ron out of his seat,and took it.She gazed
out the window.
"So,Jane,what's life like in the U.S.?"Ron asked,"I've never been.Are the streets actually paved with gold?"
Jane laughed and said,"No,the roads aren't paved with gold."Then she launched into a story about her and Jean's lives.
While this was going on,Mione and Jean had struck up a lively conversation, and Flowers had jumped into Harry's lap.
"Harry,there is something you need to know,"she said.
"What is it?Is it about my mom?"he asked.
"Yes,it is about your mom.She is at Hogwarts and waiting to see you,"said Flowers.
"Why didn't she see me in my first year?"Harry said,nearly crying.
"I think she wanted to wait until the girls would be here and then she would see all of you,"Flowers said.
"Oh,"Harry said,"When will I see her?"
"I have no idea,"Flowers said.
Jane broke in at this point.
"Mione,is that the castle over there?"
"It sure is.We'll be there in a minute or so."
"Wow.It's beautiful!"Jean cried,"Just like the castle in the Muggle fairy tales!"
"I guess,"Harry said.
"Come on,Flowers,into the basket,"Jane said.
"Grrrr.Do I have to get in the basket?"Flowers said.
"Yes.You do.Now get in,"Jane commanded.
"Oh,all right,"and with much grumbling,she hopped onto the basket.
"She's really rather mad because we always get her blanket washed and we haven't washed it in a week,"
explained Jean.
And then,the train pulled to a stop.
"Okay.Jean,are we ready to face this?A whole new set of people in a totally different school,"Jane asked.
"I guess we are,"she replied.
"I know you are,"said Hermione confidentally.
With that,they got off the train,ready to face anything.
